What a horror show in North Korea. It's like September 11 with trains. Two darkly amusing things from the FOX report:

1. The line about how "North Korea declared a state of emergency after the crash." How do you declare more of an emergency in a police state? Extra-extra-martial law?

2. The fact that news got out through the (by comparison) free Chinese media.

Also, what was Kim doing in China? And I'll be interested to see what tea leaves can be read from this as to the North Korean energy crisis. In the meantime, we should all say a prayer for the unfortunate victims.

Yeah, Fox TV is talking like this may have been an assassination attempt on The Glorious Leader. I guess you never know, but I would have to think, even in North Korea, there would have to be easier ways to do it.
